<font size=3>Alan, <br><br>
Thanks for the response. You're the only one so far. That was basically
my impression, so I think that's what I'm going <br>
to do! <br><br>

Does anyone know how much this action dolly from Jansen is? I can't find
the price. <br>
Weighs app. 23 lbs. <br>

Laroy's is $349.00 but it has bedding screws to be able to duplicate the
keydip <br>
while out of the piano and even has a string height target thingee.
Weighs app. 18 lbs. <br>

Except for the things mentioned above, both seem to be similar as far as
design is concerned. <br>
<br>
I'm thinking about getting one or the other. I'm getting old! :-) So far,
the Edwards looks <br>
better because of the bedding screws and string height
"target". <br>
<br>
Anyone tried both of them? Thanks. <br>
